Very efficient in letting me know sample received and notifying me that results were in but useless when trying to access results. Repeated entering of information i.e. Order No and Postcode came up as invalid

Misunderstood the information 😱

I did find the procedure rather confusing and it wasn’t until l clicked on Update details that l got the certificate that said my test was negative, perhaps l didn’t read the information correctly I’m sure it was my mistake and thankfully my result was negative.

Wonderful service accessing certificates

Although I had managed to post off the Covid tests successfully (upon return from holiday), I did not have the correct postcode to access our certificates. Sara from Source BioScience was brilliant. She was patient, polite, helpful and friendly. She provided all the information I needed and nothing was too much trouble. Well done and many thanks, Sara.

Great support in obtaining results

Source BioScience were commissioned by our holiday company Riviera Travel to do our Day 2 tests on return from a short cruise on the Douro. All was efficient and fast, and excellent. Difficulty getting our (negative) results on online - its an age thing - were helped quickly and with calm kindness by Melisa. Thanks so much.

Try to fill the form right as answers from customer service take time

I decided to use their service this time as it was possible to post test via Royal Mail. I made mistake in email and could not log in. It took several days to get the correct log in details as no one answered my email. But in general seems to be a good provider.

PCR Testing Recommendation

An excellent service from the Source BioScience team.
The speed, updates and efficiency of the test results, along with the courteous and prompt customer service response, removed any stress I was feeling about the whole testing procedure.
Thoroughly recommended.

Fast & smooth Day 5 test

I bought the Day 5 test. Overall an excellent experience from the moment I bought the test, everything went smoothly and quickly that I was able to get out of quarantine way before my 10-day period. Will definitely use Source Bioscience again next time.

Useless service

Four of us took PCR tests 72 hours before travel and posted them via a designated post box to Source Bioscience. We received emails telling us that the company was unable to return the tests in time as it was taking them four days to process them. This is of course a useless service. They offered a refund, but this doesn't help. A firm to avoid.

Taking the stress out of an already stressful situation

Recently ordered multiple tests for myself, friends and family the service was outstanding and worked seamlessly. I felt extremely kept informed throughout the process with royal mail tracking and emails from source bio science when kits were dispatched and received, with stresses around travel and having to provide test results before doing so I feel source bio science process takes a lot of the worry out of an already stressful situation. would defiantly use this company in the future

Useless Administration

Poor IT and illogical instructions. When our PCR tests were received, we each got an email. We both missed the link (in yellow on white!) to upload sample date and time. As we had already recorded date and time on paperwork accompanying samples this should have been adequate. Apparently this was not. We contacted Riviera Travel on the afternoon before leaving UK, who quickly booked us immediate lateral flow tests at Manchester Airport. Had an excellent holiday as a result. On returning,we carried out Day 2 PCR tests. Source BioScience duly emailed when tests arrived. This time we knew we had to provide date/time details by internet. Source BioScience emails arrived at 10 am. My link to confirm date/time failed and was reported to be "invalid" and remains so at 1230 pm. My wife's failed and would only link to the Outbound PCR test but eventually worked at 12pm.
Do not use Source BioSciece. We nearly lost our holiday due to the company's illogical and near-illegible instructions

Quick, efficient and good value

Ordered 2-day Covid test kits from them twice in August 2021 - both times the kits were dispatched and received on time and results were quick. We called once as we made a mistake labelling the test tube and our query was dealt with quickly and efficiently. Good price on the kits as well. We are very pleased and recommend them.
